What are the regulations regarding campaign signs?
The Manhattan Zoning Regulations permits campaign signs within the City Limits under the following conditions: 1. Said signs may be erected not earlier than sixty (60) days prior to said election and shall be removed within fifteen (15) days following said election. 2. No sign shall be located within, or over the public right-of-way. To insure that signs are not placed in a public right-of-way, the following guidelines should be followed along most streets: Signs should be placed behind sidewalks; if there is no sidewalk, signs should be placed at least 15 feet behind the curb. Major streets such as Seth Child Road, Ft. Riley Boulevard, Tuttle Creek Boulevard, Kimball Avenue, and US Highway 24, usually require much greater setbacks, and are often fenced and/or have large drainage ditches, behind which signs should be placed. Finally, it is recommended that care be taken to insure that vision is not blocked near street intersections.
